A New History of Japanese Cinema by Isolde Standish
In this major new study of a century of Japanese narrative filmmaking, Isolde Standish provides an in-depth chronological survey of a huge range of films. The book draws upon a great deal of Japanese film scholarship that has never been published outside of Japan, and sheds light on films and directors that are not so famous on the international stage, as well as on those who are (Ozu, Mizoguchi, and Kurosawa). The book also features extensive appendices, including a full filmography and biographical information on prominent people in the Japanese film industry.
Isolde Standish is a Senior Lecturer in Film and Media Studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
